Sherrill: Thanks for your message to the WRG group. When I saw Nova
Scotia, I checked our Henry Whitney database (since many of his descendants
migrated up and around Canada). I looked for the names you gave above but
no obvious hits.

Do you have any more specifics? The databases are getting so large that it
is becoming more difficult to follow migration patterns. A few more birth
dates and/or spouse names could narrow our search to lead to better results.

Thanks.
